New Australian Indigenous Medicine Subject Guide

Resources related to natural medicine used by Australian Aborigines have been collated on LibGuides under the Subject Guides list. It was created by Stephen Barnett and a UniSA Library Studies student Jana Herber during a placement at the Adelaide Campus Library.

Having these resources grouped in one place is a great bonus as they are sometimes difficult to locate. Check it out! It may be relevant to your History of Healing or Herbal Medicine subjects.
